July Fourth Brunch


I do wonder if anyone else had a brunch on the 4th of July. We did. My oldest son with his oldest daughter came over and we ate eggs,bagels and lox, potatoes, muffins, brownies and whatever else came our way. I love brunch. I wish all my guests or family would come for brunch.

This recipe is from AllRecipes and I adapted it for us.

Brunch Egg Bake

2 cups shredded Mexican Cheese Combo
1/3 cup sliced green onions
1/2 cup chopped sweet red pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
8 eggs
3/4 cups milk
1/4 cup gluten-free brown rice flour mixture
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon pepper 
In a medium skillet, saute onions and red pepper in olive oil until tender; drain.  

In a bowl, beat eggs. Add milk, flour, parsley, basil, and pepper; mix well. 

Add vegetables and cheese to egg mixture.  Mix well.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 35-40 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. 

Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.

    Nice idea especially since don't have little ones anymore. Nieces and nephews have kids now and do the picnics.

    I made a variation of this recipe this morning. I didn't have all of the ingredients that your recipe calls for so I substituted a few things. It came out great! I did a post on it and linked back to your blog. :)

    Have a wonderful Saturday.

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Brussels Sprouts - Power Food - Re-post

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I
